AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lambeth we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not understanding how to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely don't start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In case you did start the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.
